states of the Near East collaborate along harmonious and constructive
lines, seeking no advantage one over the other, but seeking, through
expansion of trade and the exchange of skills and capital, the develop-
ment of their resources for their common benefit. Progress can be
made only when basic security is assured through removal of threats
of aggression, and full reliance is placed on peaceful negotiation and
on the United Nations for settlement of disputes. Progress can be
made only if underlying conditions are modified to permit the people
of the Near East to share, in proportion to their effort, the products
of the soil and factories. All solutions can be reached in time
through democratic and peaceful processes.
I am convinced that, if the Near Eastern nations affected by
the recent hostilities will put aside their differences and bend their
energies to constructive cooperation, they can find a basis on which to
build permanent peace and stability. The United States stands ready to
lend a firm and helping hand in such an endeavor.
